Whether or not you accept this, people form an opinion about you from the first seconds they see or listen to you (on the phone). If they like you in those first moments, they will subconsciously tend to see the other side more beautiful of your personality and they will seek to talk to you.

If their first impression of you is unpleasant, things will continue to go against you.

The first clue that guides someone when they first notice you are the quality and level of energy that emanates from you. In other words, it is about your attitude, including your body posture.

The second perceived thing is your clothing. In fact, the impact caused by your being is so fast that the two observations take place simultaneously, giving rise to the first impression about you. Your attitude tells people if you are an open or closed person, cordial or fearful.

Your posture provides some clues about your general health, as human beings are genetically programmed to look for a partner or partner by "snapping" health. Your clothes convey a lot more than you would be tempted to believe.

They tell people what kind of person you are, but they also reveal a lot about your socio-economic status. Clothing can make you naked if you are conventional or original, sexy or shy, in step with fashion or traditionalist. That being said, I can go through your wardrobe and find out what she has to say about you ...

Here are some practical steps you can take to begin the process of preparation for mediation.

  • Attitude, first of all. More than anything, this is the decisive factor in influencing the way people perceive you when they first meet you. Try to adopt an attitude that is as advantageous as possible: relaxed, benevolent, kind, enthusiastic...
  • Try to bring charm to your side and do not let yourself be overwhelmed by an alarmist spirit. This means keeping eye contact, even if only for a few seconds. In this way you send a message to the unconscious area of ​​others, a message full of confidence. You just have to be more discriminating with the help you render toward other people.
  • Smile with a (somewhat) genuine joy. A smile means that you are happy, fulfilled and confident.
  • Use body language to show openness and relaxation. For example, instead of crossing your arms over your chest, position yourself "heart to heart" in a concrete way, orienting your left side of your body to the left side of the other person. In this way, you signal that you have no aggressive tendency or intention.

When you enter a room full of strangers, you should do the following:

  • Wear clothes that attract attention through quality, cut, trend (do not overdo it and do not try to look better than anyone else).
  • Head towards the middle of the room. Popular people always go, more or less consciously, towards the central part of a restaurant, classrooms, parties, etc. Nothing proves your attitude more confident than this gesture.
  • Move your body a little slower than usual. Slower people tend to be noticed more easily and are often considered sexy. Do this in the most natural way possible. If you walk slowly artificial, better give it up.
  • The 3-second rule. On a social occasion, if you notice someone (looking at you), in about 3 seconds go to that person and ask them a question, ask them for clarification about where you want to go. straighten up or simply introduce yourself).
  • Ask, exciting, questions that can start a discussion. The best way to start a conversation is to make a statement followed by an open-ended question (something like, "Hi, I think this city is fantastic. I'm only here for three hours. What places should you visit? "

Focusing on the most important aspects of your public image and improving it can make you more desirable in a possible or promising love affair, but it can also improve the way you feel in your own skin. When we feel good about ourselves, almost everything that happens to us changes for the better.

We are able to make more inspired decisions, we are crossed by the feeling of adventure, we have more energy and desire to live, all influencing the nonverbal signals we send to those around us.
